Paula's dog is 36 lbs

Use the equation 48=3x+x

Add like terms: 48=4x

Divide: 12=x (x=Carla's dog's weight)

Then Multiply x by 3 to get Paula's dog's weight and you get 36 lbs

Could someone explain why (-4)² is equal to 16 but -4² is equal to -16​
erica [24]

Answer:

It's all about the brackets.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we do (-4)^2, the brackets make it -4 x -4 and the two negatives make a positive of 16.

If we do -4^2, that means that the 4 is squared before putting the minus sign there so you have 4x4 = 16 then put the minus to get -16.

Hope this helps!
